Intrusion security device with SMS based notification and control

Abstract

A security system includes a security device with at least two factors of authentication. A method of operating a security system including displaying a pseudo code screen prior to display of an actual access code screen, the pseudo code screen identical to the actual access code screen.

What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A security system, comprising: a security device operable to display a pseudo access code screen prior to display of an actual access code screen, the security device requiring with at least two factors of authentication to access the actual access code screen from the pseudo access code screen, wherein the pseudo access code screen is identical to the actual access code screen and entry of the access code to the actual access code screen is required to disarm the security system. 
     
     
       2. The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein at least one factor of authentication of the at least two factors of authentication includes a proximity between the security device and an authorized mobile device. 
     
     
       3. The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein at least one factor of authentication of the at least two factors of authentication includes a communication between the security device and an authorized mobile device. 
     
     
       4. The system as recited in  claim 3 , wherein the communication between the security device and the authorized mobile device includes a fingerprint to the authorized mobile device. 
     
     
       5. The system as recited in  claim 3 , wherein the communication between the security device and the authorized mobile device includes a voiceprint to the authorized mobile device. 
     
     
       6. The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein at least one factor of authentication of the at least two factors of authentication includes a Short Message Service (SMS) between the security device and an authorized mobile device. 
     
     
       7. The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein at least one factor of authentication of the at least two factors of authentication includes a Short Message Service (SMS) from an authorized mobile device to a security device. 
     
     
       8. The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein at least one factor of authentication of the at least two factors of authentication includes display of the pseudo access code screen prior to display of an actual access code screen. 
     
     
       9. The system as recited in  claim 8 , wherein the pseudo access code screen requires entry of a pseudo code for display of the actual access code screen. 
     
     
       10. The system as recited in  claim 9 , wherein the pseudo code has a different digit count compared to the access code. 
     
     
       11. The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein entry of an access code into the pseudo access code screen will result in an access failure. 
     
     
       12. The system as recited in  claim 1 , wherein entry of a proper access code for the actual access code screen into the pseudo access code screen will result in an access failure. 
     
     
       13. A method of operating a security system, the method comprising: displaying a pseudo access code screen on a security device prior to display of an actual access code screen on the security device, the pseudo access code screen identical to the actual access code screen; and receiving the access code to the actual access code screen to disarm the security system. 
     
     
       14. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising displaying the actual access code screen in response to an authorized mobile device being within a predefined proximity to a security device. 
     
     
       15. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising displaying the actual access code screen in response to a Short Message Service (SMS) from an authorized mobile device. 
     
     
       16. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising requiring entering a pseudo code to the pseudo access code screen to display of the actual access code screen. 
     
     
       17. The method as recited in  claim 16 , wherein the pseudo code has a different digit number compared to the access code. 
     
     
       18. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising communicating with an authorized mobile device or a central monitoring station in response to a predetermined number of incorrect entries into the pseudo access code screen. 
     
     
       19. The method as recited in  claim 18 , further comprising communicating with the authorized mobile device or the central monitoring station via Short Message Service (SMS). 
     
     
       20. The method as recited in  claim 18 , further comprising communicating information related to the security device to the authorized mobile device. 
     
     
       21. The method as recited in  claim 18 , further comprising communicating a temporary access code to the authorized mobile device. 
     
     
       22. The method as recited in  claim 21 , further comprising displaying a secret question screen in response to entry of the temporary access code. 
     
     
       23. The method as recited in  claim 22 , further comprising disabling the security device in response to an incorrect entry to the secret question screen. 
     
     
       24. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising displaying the actual access code screen in response to an authorized mobile device being within a predefined proximity to a security device, the predefined proximity determined by a global positioning system (GPS). 
     
     
       25. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising displaying the actual access code screen in response to an authorized mobile device being within a predefined proximity to a security device, the predefined proximity determined by triangulation. 
     
     
       26. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising displaying the actual access code screen in response to an authorized mobile device being within a predefined proximity to a security device, the predefined proximity determined from a periodic poll from the mobile device. 
     
     
       27. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising displaying the actual access code screen in response to an authorized mobile device being within a predefined proximity to a security device, then displaying the actual access code screen in response to an extensible markup language-based communication from the mobile device. 
     
     
       28. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising displaying the pseudo access code screen and the actual access code screen on a touchscreen of the security device. 
     
     
       29. The method as recited in  claim 13 , further comprising receiving at least two factors of authentication prior to permitting access to the actual access code screen from the pseudo access code screen. 
     
     
       30. The method as recited in  claim 13 , wherein the displaying includes displaying the pseudo access code screen to be identical to the actual access code screen. 
     
     
       31. A security system, comprising: a security device operable to display a pseudo access code screen prior to display of an actual access code screen, the pseudo code screen identical to the actual access code screen, the security device requiring at least two factors of authentication to access the actual access code screen from the pseudo access code screen, wherein entry of the access code to the actual access code screen is required to disarm the security system.
